This paper presents a review of aeroelasticity research concerning fan blades in modern
civil aircraft engines. It summarises the research carried out at the Rolls-Royce Vibration …

Surge is an unstable operating condition of the aero-engine that can move the engine into a
destabilized state and cause devastating damage. One of the most popular topics in the …

Turbomachinery plays a vital role in energy conversion systems, with aerodynamic issues
being integral to its entire lifecycle, spanning the period of design, validation, and …

The evolution of complex flow structures has a large impact on the hemocompatibility of the
centrifugal blood pump. In this study, the hemodynamic performance and the …

The aim of this paper is to develop a reliable and accurate numerical strategy that can be
used to study the effects of inlet distortions on the aerodynamic stability of fan blades in aero …

Tip leakage vortex (TLV) has a large impact on compressor performance and should be
accurately predicted by computational fluid dynamics (CFD) methods. New approaches of …

The application of composite fans enables disruptive design possibilities but increases
sensitivity to multi-physical resonance between aerodynamic, structure dynamic and …

Three-dimensional corner separation is an inherent flow feature in axial compressors which
blocks flow path and worsens the performance. To find an effective turbulence model for …

The proposed passive control method, blade-end slots, is implemented to reorganize the
blade-end flow in a highly loaded compressor cascade under a wide incidence range at M …

The tip clearance size has historically been considered to be the main factor affecting
stability range in axial fan and compressors. This paper reveals that the stall characteristics …
